Artia tried to fill her entire body with muscles, but now she had to rethink her plans due to the child inside.

“Can I continue exercising?”

“Hmm?”

“We should probably refrain from intense exercises in the future, right?”

Artia asked, placing her hand on her belly.

With the baby on the way, she found herself contemplating how to adjust her plans.
Artia placed her hands on her belly and asked.

“I’m pregnant,” she thought, contemplating various thoughts.

‘Will I lose muscle if I’m pregnant?’

Seeing Artia, who had a worried expression while placing her hands on her belly, Casus gently swept her lips.

“I exercised vigorously today; I hope nothing went wrong with the baby.”

Upon hearing that a new life was growing inside her, Artia reviewed recent events, checking if she had made any mistakes.

She wondered if she had lifted too heavy a weight or applied excessive pressure to her belly.

Always exerting force on her abdominal muscles during exercise, she questioned whether she should continue doing so.

Things that she would have overlooked before now seemed regrettable.

“Oh, what should I do… I applied too much force to my belly.”

“Don’t worry too much. Nothing bad will happen.”

Casus comforted Artia, gently rubbing her feet as she worriedly rolled them.

“I can’t believe it. There’s life inside this flat belly. Am I going to be a mom now?”

“That’s right. To be honest, I can’t believe it either. I keep wondering if I made any mistakes.”

Casus worried that his small actions might harm the baby inside Artia’s belly.

A baby growing in a limited space would be sensitive to even small sounds or movements.

“I should be more careful. I’ll always be by your side from now on. Well, I always have been.”

“I might even follow you to the bathroom.”

“I’m seriously considering that.”

“Oh?”

“What if you slip there?”

Casus considered any place Artia went alone as potentially dangerous.

“Come to think of it, the bathroom is too risky. Why didn’t I think of that before?”

Casus recalled the structure of the bathroom.

The toilet, the sink, and the slippery, hard floor in the bathroom were full of hazards.

Falling on a hard surface could cause serious trouble.

“I’ve been too careless. I shouldn’t have let you go to the bathroom alone.”

“What are you talking about?”

Artia revealed her toned forearm, showcasing her strength. As she flexed her arm, strong muscles emerged, making it look even more robust.

“See? I can even break the toilet.”

“Falling is a separate issue. You never know how life will unfold.”

“Hmm? If I’m about to fall, I can control it with my strength and sense of balance.”

“Don’t be ridiculous.”

Casus chuckled while looking at her sturdy forearm. Compared to him, her muscles were still at a cute level.

He covered Artia’s exposed arms again like handling a baby chick.

“Think of yourself as part of me from now on. I’ll follow you wherever you go.”

“Um, about that…”

Artia looked into Casus’s blue eyes. His deep and sharp pupils were directed at her.

“Are you really going to follow me? To the bathroom?”

“Don’t worry. I’ll close my eyes.”

“Is this a joke?”

“Do I look like I’m joking?”

Casus’s face was deadly serious.

“Oh, I can’t live like this.”
Artia touched her forehead and leaned back on the cushion behind her.

“If you need anything, just let me know. I’ll get it for you.”

“I want to be alone.”

Casus’s eyebrows twitched.

“That’s not possible.”

“Why?”

“It’s dangerous to be alone.”

“Then don’t follow me to the bathroom.”

“That’s not allowed either.”

“Why not?”

“The bathroom is dangerous.”

“Oh, come on…”

“If something happens to you, it’s immediately my responsibility, so it’s only natural, don’t you think?”

With Artia having a child, Casus’s obsession became even more intense.

Artia tilted her head back, looking at the ceiling with a detached expression.

Casus chuckled and asked to lighten Artia’s mood, “Should I give you a foot massage?”

“Oh, that’s a great idea.”

Placing her foot on his leg, Artia said, “Press it firmly.”

“Sure. I’ll keep doing it until you tell me to stop.”

As Casus massaged her foot, all the worries seemed to melt away.

“Oh, right there, yes. That’s good.”

Casus’s skilled hands and strength resonated well with Artia.

While receiving the foot massage, Artia discussed the future.

“A lot is going to change. My way was to stick to routines.”

“Let’s think it through carefully.”

“From a visual perspective, I can’t really tell… that there’s a baby inside.”

Artia lightly placed her hand on her belly.

“I have to be careful not to do anything that could impact the baby. Suddenly, there’s this sense of responsibility.”

Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she

really disliked him

Short intro:

What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.

Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.

Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!

She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.

*

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.

This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!

***

Synopsis:

Before transmigrating, Shen Yaoxing only wanted to find a reliable man to spend her life with. Who knew that after transmigrating, she would become a reliable woman herself…

A forced misandrist, highly skilled, and reliable female lead

vs.
